family dinners?



Recommended Posts

I am thinking about making my family some caserols to put in the freezer so they can just put it in the oven while I am done. Any ideas?

I've made low carb chili, Soups, stews, gumbo, crustless chicken pot pie, and have grilled meats portioned and ready to go. I also have homemade meatballs and sauce and meat loaf muffins cooked. I put them on a serving of mashed cauliflower and freeze them in muffin tins, then place in freezer bags. :D We use them now, when I'm still pre-surg and too tired to cook--rather than going out to eat. And I replace them when I cook. So it's continually turning over.

I basically do what she does, minus the Soups and casseroles since I live alone. I just make meals for myself, examples being...

1. Shrimp and Zoodle Alfredo
2. chicken Salsa Couscous

3. Slow Cooked Italian Turkey Meatballs and I just replace the breadcrumbs with parmesan cheese and add eggs. (Eliminates unwanted extra carbs).

4. Turkey Swedish Meatballs

5. Shrimp and Zucchini Noodle Pesto (Spicy or not spicy).

6. Seafood salad

7. What I just call "Scallop and Quinoa Alfredo"

8. Chili with turkey.

9. Chicken Parmesan without the breadcrumbs.

10. A chicken, Broccoli and Cheese Casserole.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
